“Romney lost today to a guy who is overseeing a horrible economy, prosecuting unpopular wars, and who can barely string 5 words together without a teleprompter. This was the best the Republican Party can do. Not only are the Republicans evil, they’re evil and contemptible losers, which is far worse.

The biggest losers tonight are of course people who value peace and freedom, but we would have also lost if Romney won. The GOP is right up there in the loser category, however. The GOP lost seats in the Senate, and did little to improve its position in the House. It has served up two ridiculously bad nominees in a row, claiming “electability” and then going down in flames.”

And the Republicans complain about the Democrats using a teleprompter?

“Representative Justin Amash (R-Mich.) called for an audit of the Republican National Committee after it seated delegates from states with a great deal of support for Ron Paul at the edges of the convention floor.”

“candidate who controls five state delegations to make a motion on the floor; however, Romney’s lawyers successfully stripped away Paul’s delegates”
“[The RNC has] been bending the rules and breaking the rules and rewriting the rules for too long, and that’s what we have to stop from happening.””

“Mr. Paul, in an interview, said convention planners had offered him an opportunity to speak under two conditions: that he deliver remarks vetted by the Romney campaign, and that he give a full-fledged endorsement of Mr. Romney. He declined.”

“Delegates from Nevada tried to nominate Mr. Paul from the floor, submitting petitions from their own state as well as Minnesota, Maine, Iowa, Oregon, Alaska and the Virgin Islands. That should have done the trick: Rules require signatures from just five states. But the party changed the rules on the spot. Henceforth, delegates must gather petitions from eight states.”

Some say that the left wing media feels Romney is the best candidate to lose to Obama, since he is easier to take on. Romney knew that the rules were changed and looked the other way. Many feel he is starting his presidential career on the wrong foot to cross others. You go with the GOP base or you will get no support. Ron Paul knew the rules or the lack of rules the GOP has for his changes of winning were not good. Many say he got what he wanted for to chance to educate others on another view by showing what tricks the GOP and the Media does to undermine elections.

“Ron, Carol, and one of their granddaughters left the GOP snake pit yesterday afternoon, but the State was not yet through with them. At the little airport in Clearwater, 8 TSA agents descended on them and ordered them not to board their private plane. First, the pilots, the airplane, and the passengers would have to be screened in great detail, because Romney might be nearby. After a long examination of the pilots and their credentials, the agents said they had to check the plane for explosives. One of the pilots noted that the plane, full of gas, was already a bomb. Then Carol Paul, who has a heart pacemaker, refused to be screened, and an aide started taking video of the whole rotten proceeding. At that point, the TSA backed down and let them through.”

It would not be the first time. Did someone high up think he would be a security threat that he didn’t win the election? Some might say it’s for their own protection and others and no one should be treated special.

Usually people that order things like that feel others will do what they feel they would do it they were the other. People like them are usually security threats and have a lack of knowledge to understand what would really happen and who would do it.

“If you follow mainstream election coverage, you might think Mitt Romney has coasted to an honest, easy, well-deserved Republican nomination. Unfortunately for Republican voters, nothing could be further from the truth. The primary process has been an all-out slugfest and many of the delegates Romney has won may be the result of dirty tricks and even election fraud. The following narrative includes links to reports, first-hand testimonials, and video evidence highlighting actions taken by the GOP to ensure a Romney victory, at the expense of fracturing the party just prior to the general election. Party leaders at the county and state level have changed or violated party rules, cancelled caucuses, changed vote counts, thrown out entire counties of votes, counted public votes privately, called-in the SWAT team, and inexplicably replaced Paul delegates with Romney delegates to block Ron Paul from winning the nomination.”

Ted Cruz is not the best candidate and his background is questionable to make many not vote for him. But Ron and Ran Paul have endorsed him due it his message leaning more to their view.

As stated before Ron Paul’s Young Americans for Liberty 2012 Endorsements is getting momentum. The modern Tea Party was started by Paul and partly taken away by the GOP, but now they have gotten more organized and are benefiting in the results.

“Grassroots from across the state banned together to push Cruz across the finish line. Last week Senators Rand Paul, Jim DeMint, Mike Lee, along with Sarah Palin rallied for Cruz in Houston. The push worked: Cruz led in the polls ahead of the primary run-off and claimed victory tonight.”
